Euro 2004 VIII - The Scandinavian Party Photo

Photographer’s Note

The apprehension of the Swedish in the game against the Denmark was constant, therefore, they were always behind in the counting of gols. Exactly thus, Sweden in the end obtained ties up to it that it classified the two Scandinavian elections.
I liked them mainly eyeglasses of the left supporter and the "fair play" of the man to the right that took a Portuguese flag in the head.

Hi Joao, great expressions! Good DoF, what happened when you took this shot? They were not looking very glad. At last, they are through, right? Good shot!

Wonderful shot Joao - their tense and anxious expressions are classic and funny. It's strange how sport can elicit incredibly intense emotions. Great colour and depth of field here too.

Now this is a sharp one. Keep it up. I am extremely enjoying the colors of Euro. Thanks Joao and hoping to see more "colors".

Again a nice shot from Euro 2004 with the Swedish fans quite absorbed-looking. Good colors and capture of facial expression, and interesting that the guy on the right is wearing this Portuguese-flag kind of hat. Good entry into your series, Joao.

Olá João. Muito boa, a foto. E realmente mostra a preocupação dos suécos, porém com o fair play que é indispensável hoje em dia. Quase igual aos estádios aqui no Brasil, né ? mas a gente chega lá ... adelante portugal !!! adelante filipon !!! :-)) pra cima dos ingleses com tudo !!!!

Another good add to the serie. The portugese flag on the head is a nice fair-play sign. Thought, they really look anxious :-), not sure about the result. Nice catch of expressions.
